I agree to your enhanced suggestion. The conflict resolution process should 
not start automatically, but per button-click (there may be an option 
"start conflict resolution automatically" though).
That button would have the advantage that you could re-start the conflict 
resolution process after you have (accidentally) aborted it.
About the labelling of the "abort" button: since there is an option 
"Postpone" (equals "skip/cancel conflict resolution for this file"), the 
meaning of "abort" in my opinion is clear enough. But it can be improved by 
labelling it "abort conflict resolution process"; there's enough space for 
a wide button (or make it 40px high and use multiline text).
